About Nexen N'blue HD Plus 225/60 R17 99V 2024

Wet-Road Performance

The N'blue HD Plus 225/60 R17 99V carries a C wet-grip classification. Its tread design uses longitudinal grooves to help evacuate water from the contact area and maintain predictable road contact during wet summer driving.

Wet Braking

The C wet-grip rating indicates a balanced level of wet braking performance for this specification. The four longitudinal grooves help channel water away from the tread and support controlled braking on wet paved surfaces.

Dry-Road Handling

The 225 mm section width and 60-series profile provide a practical balance between steering stability and everyday driving comfort. The asymmetric road-oriented tread is designed to support consistent handling on dry paved roads.

Ride Comfort and Noise

The exact 225/60 R17 99V specification is listed with an external rolling-noise value of 71 dB and a B noise classification. This provides a moderate noise level suited to regular urban and highway driving.

Rolling Resistance

The verified EPREL-linked data for this exact 99V specification gives a C rolling-resistance class. This represents a balanced efficiency level for a conventional summer passenger-car tyre.

Summer Road Use

The N'blue HD Plus is a summer tyre intended for paved-road driving in warm-weather conditions. It is suitable for daily commuting, urban driving and highway travel, but it is not classified for severe snow or ice conditions.

Load Capacity

The 99 load index corresponds to a maximum rated load of 775 kg per tyre. This is a standard-load specification rather than an XL version and should be fitted where the vehicle manufacturer specifies the 225/60 R17 99V size.

V Speed Rating

The V speed rating permits a maximum rated speed of 240 km/h. Actual driving speed must remain within applicable legal limits and the vehicle manufacturer's requirements.

Vehicle Compatibility

The Nexen N'blue HD Plus 225/60 R17 99V is intended for passenger cars requiring this exact size and load/speed specification. Vehicle compatibility should always be confirmed using the vehicle placard or owner's manual before installation.
